Apple is hell-bent on making Thanksgiving week as slow as possible for us while they prepare for The Day That Shall Not Be Named, but hey, at least we can get a glimpse of the new iPod shuffle ad, right? Right. Apple's newest ad, which will presumably end up on the TV at some point, features many different actors—whose faces are not shown—against a pale green background, changing into and out of various pieces of clothing and clipping the shuffle to it. The shuffle can clip to anything—it's mind-blowing!

The song featured in the ad is "Who's Gonna Sing?" by the Prototypes, which of course can be purchased at the iTunes Store if it stays in your head for the rest of the day.
